She has opened for Big Jay Oakerson, Ari Shaffir, Kurt Metzger, Tom Segura, Sam Tripoli, Baron Vaughn, Brian Redban from Deathsquad, and Brendon Walsh. Katharine was featured on ichannel (Canada’s political and social issues network) in the stand-up series No Kidding, and as a panellist on Inside Joke in 2014. She also hosted a monthly show COMEDY INFERNO, and was the weekly headliner at the Hot Box in Toronto.
In 2014, Katharine moved to the UK to continue her career in her family’s home country. That year she was a finalist in the Laughing Horse New Act competition, and this year she has arrived at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with her debut solo show Conscious Incompetent.
